"Das Personal war sehr höflich, es war ein älteres Hotel, daher war auch die Ausstattung nicht so großartig. Frühstück war okay. Es hatte einen großen Parkplatz was sehr angenehm war."
"The room was very clean. Staff was great. Breakfast tasty, and property on outskirts of city and right beside highway. Central location if heading to Akhisar, Bergama or Sart."
"The pros: Taş Konak is an old stone home that’s been converted into a small guesthouse. The stone and wood vibe is charming and pleasing on the eye. The staff are lovely, and speak a little English if you’re not a Turkish speaker. The breakfast terrace has a spectacular view over the old town. Breakfast was good. The surrounding area is quiet and charming. It’s a five-minute walk in one direction to the town centre, and a five-minute walk in the other direction to the cable car station that will...
"It was an old school traditional house nice decorations. Roo, was relaxed and large enough. Breakfast served in the garden was amazing and the staff was very friendly.
they need to seal the shower doors better because water is leaking out and there is a need for a squeegee to clean the water. Except that everything was great!"
"Ganz oben in TOP10 der schönsten Unterkünfte unseren Reisen. Ein sehr charmantes Haus, das Zimmer war liebevoll eingerichtet. Mit Moskitonetz am Fenster. Aber das tolle ist, die Terrasse auf dem Dach! Dort zu frühstücken, ist ein unvergessliches Erlebnis! Eine Küche mit allem nötigen ist auch dabei. Das Haus ist gut zu finden. Das Auto konnte in der Straße parken. Einfaches CheckIn. Sehr gute Lage. Unsere absolute Empfehlung dort einzuchecken!!! Danke "

"Welcoming receptionist who was charming and friendly throughout our stay. The hotel is in an ideal location in the centre of town, close to lots of good places to eat. The museum is opposite and you can walk to the two sets of archeological sites if you wish as we did.
Inside the hotel we slept well on comfortable beds. Bathroom was good.
Breakfast is simple but adequate "
"Very nice location and walkable or short drive to everything, Nice specious rooms with decent amenities. Very nice open yard for hanging out. Only thing we didn't like was breakfast was not included. Every hotel we stayed in Turkey (in 2 weeks travel) breakfast was included. However, it was within walking distance from many restaurant choices so we didn't care. Parking was a little concerning as it was in the street outside. "
"What a gem! This was an incredible experience before exploring the ruins of Pergamon the following day. Highly recommend for travelers wanting an authentic experience!"
"Tucked beneath the ancient ruins of Pergamon, the Alaia Hotel sits quietly in the old Ottoman quarter of Bergama. With its charming and eclectic furnishings, it proved to be a wonderful choice. Navigating the winding cobbled streets was tricky—even Google Maps struggled—but the owner was communicative and guided us there with ease. In the morning, we enjoyed a delicious homemade Turkish breakfast, and best of all, everything we wanted to see was within walking distance."
"It is a "normal" Ramada hotel. Everything you would expect in any other country. It's new and very clean. There is a restaurant on-site that serves dinner and breakfast buffet. The biggest inconvenience is the location. It's located next to the highway and suits well those who decided to make a stop while traveling. There is nothing else around the hotel besides a gas station. Also, the hotel price matches the prices in the US but, in my opinion, is too much for Turkey. I guess it's because there is not much competition around it. "
"Great neighborhood in the Old City. Close to the Pergamum acropolis if you are able to walk it. Owner was great about being there to meet my late arrival from Izmir."
